The title of this Book is derived from the Septuagint; in which it is called [exodos,], "Exodus;" or, as it is in the Codex Alexandrinus, [exodos aiguptou,] "the Exodus or departure from Egypt;" but it is called in Hebrew Bibles [w'lh shmwt,] {Weelleh Shemoth,} "these are the names", or merely, [shmwt,] {Shemoth,} "names", from the words with which it commences.
